Nike Air Triax 91 new 2

When Nike wanted to make yet another running shoe breakthrough, the Oregon based company went back to its roots and went to Japan for assistance. The Nike Air Triax running shoe is built from a high-tech carbon-based fiber manufactured by a Japanese company called Teijin. Teijin suggested a material used by automobile interiors. The high tech material is not only waterproof, but it is also breathable which is a GREAT combination for runners. Traditionally, runners would need to make a sacrifice for either a breathable shoe or one that is water proof. In fact, most hardcore runners have several shoes specifically for what the weather is like outside. Now runners could instead by the Nike Air Triax and have all they need in one shoe. Like earlier Air Max models, the full-length air sole returns in the Nike Air Triax - this time with a TPU mid-sole unit to support pounding heels. Most importantly, the Nike Air Triaxhas a ventilated support strap on the inside to create the same fluid fit, feel, and appearance of a molded retro track spike. The clean, spare look of the Nike Air Triaxis as impressive in town as it is on the track.
